Mainly worthless to brokers so I don't feel guilty using them.  :o ::) :o
take out the ink card and I'll gladly trade you 60,000 delta sky pesos for your 60,000 UR points  ;D

So Dan says that if you get a credit card at http://www.dansdeals.com/credit-cards then you can get 2 free one-way trips from TLV to NYC. Are any of those cards not easily converted to miles? The reason I ask is cause my wife keeps saying that if we can get points on a new card that can be sold at, say a 1.4 rate then it makes sense for us to just keep the cash. If, however, one of those cards will give you miles that are not convertible to cash then I would get that card just for the miles and tix and not feel guilty about spending cash or cash equivalent. Thanks guys
I got burned selling to a broker.  No more AA for me and 35,000 + miles out the window.

This might be the wrong place to post this, but are there any introductory threads about Miles and Frequent Flyer clubs? I've never had Miles to spend and don't really know how to get into the game. I searched the Forum but the search function isn't so great...

Just a thought. All those people that booked this price line ticket, might come to the airport and get smacked with the 'fat' fee. They're not even going to know what to do. It'll cause a huge ruckuss...

The thing is, for people who how no idea that this isn't a regular glitch ticket. This'll be a shock. They'll think they can't be charged and will make a huge fuss.
